Chapter 791: Gathering the Game (Part 2)

Xu Tengyu was quite proud of this matter. After all, if he wanted to organize such a dinner party in the past, no one would pay attention to him, even if the old man supported him.
After all, when it comes to money, everyone will become very cautious, especially when the scale of funds exceeds tens of billions, many relationships will not work so well.
However, Xu Tengyu's status is different now. Behind him is Tengyu Logistics, a large group with a value of tens of billions. In addition to the Xu family's own network of contacts, he has some face in all aspects.
Lu Yiming naturally heard the "spring breeze and high spirits" in Xu Tengyu's words, and chuckled and teased: "I haven't seen you for a while, and you're already pretending to be cultured?"
"What are you talking about? I graduated from a prestigious university after all. I'm very talented, don't you understand?"
"Well, I won't join in the fun at a gathering of elegant people like you. After all, I am just a vulgar person, extremely vulgar, and the kind of person who is so poor that only money is left on my body."
"Come on, can we talk it out?"
Hearing that Lu Yiming couldn't come, Xu Tengyu immediately became anxious and told him everything honestly: "Okay, I won't hide it from you. I am indeed one of the initiators of this game, but I am not the only one who is working hard. I guess you have noticed the signs of economic recovery recently, right?"
When talking about business, Lu Yiming also became serious and nodded: "I have heard about the reform of the financial industry."
When you reach a certain stage in business, whether you can make money or not depends not only on the market and users, but also on changes in current affairs and policies.
Therefore, Lu Yiming not only developed the habit of reading the newspaper every day after getting up, he even spent money to recruit a group of scholars to serve as his think tank to collect intelligence for him and analyze current affairs.
It's not that we need them to be military advisors, but it is still necessary to find out the gaps and fill them.
After all, although Lu Yiming is a reborn person, the information a person can remember is limited, and his position in his previous life was not high enough. For many things, he can only know the results but cannot access the inside story.
However, when you work backwards after getting the results, many things will become very simple.
That is why Lu Yiming is so successful in business and has maximized the advantages of information.
The current reform of Xia's financial industry is quite significant, so it has naturally attracted the attention of many interested people, and Lu Yiming is one of them.
Not to mention Xu Tengyu, the second generation born on Zenith Star, they can naturally access this kind of information faster than others.
At this time, Xu Tengyu was excitedly saying to Lu Yiming: "Many industries in China need new capital to gain vitality, including my Tengyu Logistics, so I discussed with a few people in the circle and organized a dinner party in Zhonghai, inviting the richest investors to come and see how to divide the cake together."
Although Xu Tengyu's words were reserved, Lu Yiming, who was in the situation, actually saw many clues.
Three years after joining the WTO, foreign financial institutions are gradually approaching Xia's financial industry, while Xia's banking industry is also trying to narrow the gap with foreign banks through its own reforms in order to cope with the comprehensive challenge of foreign banks in two years.
You know, this is no small matter, because finance is the core of the modern economy.
The year 2004 can be said to be an extremely critical year for Xia’s economy, and also the most critical year for Xia’s financial industry.
Starting from February 10, the national banking, securities and insurance work conference was held in Beijing. Various notices and instructions were piled up so high that they were probably taller than a person.
To put it bluntly, the previous lending business model has now reached the point where it must be changed. Otherwise, in two years, once the domestic financial system is opened, it will be crushed by Europe and the United States.
Others were worried about how to divide the cake or how to fight the foreign enemies, but Lu Yiming seemed quite relaxed. He smiled and said to Xu Tengyu, "If the sky falls, there will be tall people to hold it up. What does this have to do with me?"
Xu Tengyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard this: "My brother, you are the richest man in Asia. You are the tallest one in the world. If the sky really falls, you will definitely be the first one to bear it."
"Wait, why do you want me to take the blame?"
Xu Tengyu's words made Lu Yiming extremely upset. He actually didn't know much about investment. After all, the rules of the game in the financial industry were extremely exclusive, especially those financial elites on Wall Street, who invented a bunch of incomprehensible professional terms to fool people. Compared with their dazzling operations, the Internet jargon of later generations was as pure as a little white flower.
The reform of the financial industry will certainly affect the interests of many people in the country. How did Shang Yang die?
Lu Yiming is not a candle. He would definitely not light himself up to illuminate the world, so he really doesn't want to be involved.
There is no benefit in offending people, so why bother?
Even the richest man in Asia cannot take the blame for this.
But Lu Yiming couldn't just refuse this kind of political mission. After all, in this magical country, the identity of Asia's richest man is sometimes not as useful as that of a village committee lady.
After much thought, Lu Yiming decided to make a non-stick pan to bring nonsense literature to its fullest.
He said to Xu Tengyu helplessly: "Okay, I get it, I will attend on time."
Xu Tengyu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's fine. I'll wait for you."
"Um."
Xu Tengyu was just about to hang up when Lu Yiming gave him another shot of precaution: "Let me make it clear in advance. When it comes to investment projects, I can speak freely. As for the rest, I can only wave the flag and shout , and won't touch anything else. Can you agree to it? If you can, I'll go. If not, forget it."
"ah?"
"Huh? What? I don't want to get into trouble."
"Okay, you have the money and you have the final say."
Xu Tengyu felt it was a pity, but he also understood that this kind of thing could not be forced. In fact, if Lu Yiming was not so young and did things without any taboos, he would have been pulled to the meeting to give suggestions.
The night of October 12, Waldorf Astoria Hotel.
This hotel, built in the last century, stands out among the high-rise buildings, with a touch of classical elegance and luxury. Today, hundreds of celebrities with "terribly expensive" wealth gather here.
Some of them come from wealthy families and have powerful backgrounds, while others rise from humble beginnings and are ambitious and domineering. All of them are heroes who dominate the business world.
In addition, there are bank executives who can make things happen in the financial field. They hold huge amounts of funds and decide the rise and fall and success or failure of countless companies.
Even if the top superstar appears here, he will only become a foil.
After all, this era is ultimately intertwined with money and power.
There is no doubt that all those who can come here today are leading figures in various industries, and each of them is a powerful figure in a certain field.
Rather than a high-end dinner, it is more like a feast of wealth.
Billions of dollars are better than any delicious food.
Exquisite luxury cars gathered in Zhonghai from all over Xia Country.
Shi Qingxue was sitting in a Rolls-Royce Phantom. The driver was a skilled driver, so the ride was not bumpy. They slowly approached the banquet venue, which was as luxurious as a palace.
She was a little nervous.
Tonight was her first time to face the celebrities and dignitaries of Xia Country's upper society alone. This was a big challenge for her.
Although she is also an "entrepreneur" now, compared with the big guys who came here today, even a little bit of their net worth is much higher than hers.
"Oh, I hope I don't screw this up."
Shi Qingxue murmured softly, as a rich and beautiful woman, she was under a lot of pressure, especially knowing that among the people coming this time, there were many influential people in the financial industry.
In fact, Lu Yiming had agreed to come with him, but unfortunately something urgent happened, so he asked her to come over first to deal with it.
"Miss, we are here."
The driver's voice from the front seat interrupted Shi Qingxue's thoughts. She calmed herself down, then pinched the hem of her skirt with her left hand, held the door frame with her right hand, stretched out her legs wearing skin-colored stockings and silver high-heeled shoes inlaid with diamonds, stepped out of the car door, and stood steadily on the ground.
"Miss, you look so beautiful tonight. You will definitely be the center of attention."
The driver exclaimed sincerely, and at the same time thought of Lu Yiming, feeling that the two were truly a perfect match, a golden boy and a jade girl.
The white silk with a beige tint, paired with skin-colored stockings and sparkling high heels, makes Shi Qingxue look like a fairy who is not tainted by the worldly world.
There is often a "knight" beside the beautiful woman who has been carefully dressed up. For a moment, the beautiful clothes are swaying and the dance is performed on the dance floor, and a beautiful night begins.
Shi Qingxue, dressed in "Summer Night Stars", made a shining appearance, as bright as stars and as beautiful as a dream.
This dress was specially designed and customized by someone when she and Lu Yiming went to America. She had never worn it on any formal occasion.
As soon as she appeared on the stage, she immediately became the brightest star at the ball. She was so elegant. The simple design brought out her unique temperament. The slim upper body made her look more delicate. It was full of fashion and avant-garde elements, yet retained the classical beauty. It was simply perfect!
Shi Qingxue's perfect appearance astonished everyone, and many celebrities present looked at her with burning eyes. Tonight, she was as beautiful as an angel fallen to the mortal world. Even the stars leaned against her, making her beautiful like a dream.
Some people even couldn't help asking, "Who is this person? How come she is prettier than female celebrities and models?"
Obviously, not everyone can imitate the "nobleness" of Shi Qingxue.
With her beauty and temperament, even though there are many bright stars tonight and there is no shortage of beauties, Shi Qingxue is destined to be the most dazzling star.
At this time, Zhenxiang Fast Food has been listed on the stock market, becoming one of the few listed chain catering brands in China. The number of domestic stores has exceeded 1,000, with an annual profit of more than 1 billion yuan, making it a real catering giant. Therefore, Wang Dazhuang and several other founders were also among those invited.
And Wu Mengmeng followed as Wang Dazhuang's fiancée.
When Wu Mengmeng saw Shi Qingxue, her eyes sparkled and she couldn't help but praise him: "Oh my God, Xiaoxue, you are absolutely stunning tonight!"
"Thank you for the compliment."
Shi Qingxue's heart was extremely satisfied. Tonight, she was unique and perfect!
For some reason, at this moment, Shi Qingxue thought of Lu Yiming, his naughty smile and uninhibited and free-spirited personality. Even in front of her, a gifted daughter of heaven, he was always so calm and composed.
His handsomeness, his talent, his personality, for some reason, whenever Shi Qingxue thought of these, her heart would beat faster. She even wanted to end the party quickly so that she could express her happiness and joy to the person she was thinking of.
A few young people who came with their elders in the distance saw Shi Qingxue and immediately felt like they had fallen in love. They went up to her and tried to strike up a conversation with her, but were stopped by the people around them.
"What are you doing?"
"That's the woman of Mr. Lu, do you really want to die?"
A few young people who had been interested in doing so immediately stopped when they heard this.
"Fuck, the woman of Mr. Lu!"
"Damn it, with so much money and such a beautiful woman, why did Lu Yiming take all the good things?"
"Hush! Keep your voice down. If someone tells Mr. Lu, you're dead. Mr. Lu may be young, but he's very ruthless."
"Yes, no one who has offended him in the past few years has had a good ending. You'd better be careful."
Wu Mengmeng was chatting with Shi Qingxue. She looked left and right but couldn't see Lu Yiming. She immediately asked in confusion, "Where is your Lu Yiming?"
It’s impossible for Lu Yiming, the richest man in Asia, not to come to such a high-level banquet, right?
Moreover, this is a semi-official nature, so there is no question of whether Lu Yiming can be invited.
"he……"
Just as Shi Qingxue was speaking, the door opened and a man slowly walked in. He was wearing a simple black and blue suit, young and flamboyant, yet had a strong aura that his peers did not have.
I saw those eyes as bright as stars, passing over everyone and soon stopped on Shi Qingxue.
Lu Yiming smiled slightly, then slowly walked to his sweetheart's side, gently hugged her waist, and said affectionately: "I can't take my eyes off you when I see you."
Wu Mengmeng, who was fed with dog food, couldn't help but protest: "Hey, hey, it's still here."
Wang Dazhuang, who was handing out business cards, saw Lu Yiming and ran over to greet him, "Where did you buy this suit? It looks so handsome on you! I guess I need to get one too."
Ni Cong appeared out of nowhere and complained, "You, even when you put on the dragon robe, don't look like a prince. Lu Yiming is a man who can make a living by his face. Can you do that?"
After saying that, he approached Lu Yiming with a shameless face and said, "I think I can make a living by relying on my face. Where did you buy this suit?"
Seeing that his two roommates were still the same as before, Lu Yiming smiled and said, "I had someone in America customize it. It's the same set as 'Summer Night Stars'. When Zhenxiang Fast Food is launched one day, you can customize it yourself."
Wu Mengmeng looked at Shi Qingxue with envy again: "You two are wearing couple outfits."
Shi Qingxue held Lu Yiming's arm, smiling brightly, "Yes, Lu Yiming ordered four sets in one go, just corresponding to the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter."
"Oh, that's so romantic."
Just as they were reunited after a long separation, Xu Tengyu also came over after hearing the noise and waved to Lu Yiming from a distance: "You are finally here. I almost thought you were going to stand me up tonight."
You know, Lu Yiming is the protagonist of tonight's dinner.
After all, who can ignore the halo of Asia’s richest man?
Lu Yiming sighed: "Something happened suddenly in the company, otherwise I would have come earlier. Why, I am not late, am I?"
Xu Tengyu knew that this was Lu Yiming giving him face, and his face immediately broke into a smile: "It's good that you can come. By the way, I will introduce you to a few big guys later. Although they are not as rich as you, they are in charge of money."
